Yes, the virus is quite contagious. There is a possibility that he might have caught infection.
1. Give him (levocetrizine plus Chlorpheniramine plus pcm) x 1 tab twice daily x 3 days
2. Tab Pantoprazole 40 mg before breakfast everyday x 3-5 days
3. Tab Neurobione forte 1 tab daily x 7 days
4. Continue steam and saline gargles.
5. I won't prescribe arsenic, haven't been proved to be effective.
Don't worry, there is a possibility, but this is manageable with proper precautions. Tell him not to miss meals and have plenty of water.
